Zoo day!

We had a fun day at the zoo with our friends Natalie and Gabe. First of all, the boys got all excited about finding clothes to theme for the occasion (yes, they are my children)...

Here we are just heading in. Max wasn't sure about this whole hat thing.

But he was happy to be out and about...

All four of the boys...

Max. Love that little monkey.

Gabe!

Noah!

Lincoln!

This using a map thing is serious stuff...

Love, love, love our zoo's polar bear...

By way of documentation, I should note that it was at the end of our zoo trip that we ate lunch and I gave Max peanut butter for the first time (at 14 months). He immediately broke out into welts all over his face and body and became quite lethargic. It was really strange and disconcerting. I called Mark and he told me to keep an eye on his breathing and call 911 if there was any concern there, but to go home and give him some children's Bendryl. We kept him away from peanuts after that, and later after testing he was confirmed to have a severe peanut allergy.
